Chapter 4 Scanning Barcodes

Introduction
     This chapter includes scanning tips and instructions for setting up the scanner.

Scanning 1D Barcode
     Adjust the scan angle or the distance between the NFT10 and the target barcode to ensure the length of the laser beam is
     roughly 8mm greater than that of the barcode, as shown below.

                                        Correct                                         Wrong

21
Scanning 2D Barcode
  Adjust the scan angle and the distance between the NFT10 and the target barcode to make them fall into the following
  ranges:

  1. Point the NFT10’s focus lamp at the center of the barcode.

  2. Move the NFT10 until you find the appropriate scan distance.

  3. Optimum scan angles:

                            Skew (α) < 45° (0° preferably)

                            Pitch (γ) < 45° (5°- 20°preferably)

                            Roll (β) = 0°- 360°

                                                                                                                   22
Programming Scanner

     Tap the app icon       -> “Extend Settings” -> “Scan Settings”. Alternatively, tap the app icon   on the Home screen

     ->     . Then configure the scanner parameters as per your actual needs.

Enable Scan
     Check or uncheck the “Enable scan” item to enable or disable the scanning feature of the NFT10.

23
Output Mode
  The NFT10 provides three output modes: Simulate keystroke, Output via API, and Fill in EditText directly.

  1. Simulate keystroke: Output scanned data to keyboard buffer to simulate keyboard input.

      Character interval (ms): A character interval of 0-100 milliseconds may be placed between the transmissions of each
                                   character of scanned data.

  2. Output via API: Application acquires scanned data by receiving system broadcasts.

  3. Fill in EditText directly: Output scanned data at the current cursor position in EditText.

  Overwrite output: Clear the text input box before sending the barcode currently scanned to make sure only the most
  recently scanned data is present in the text input box. This feature is available only when Simulate keystroke or Fill in
  EditText directly is selected.

  Output enter-event: Send an Enter Key after each barcode scanned.

  Send virtual keyboard function: Make send virtual keyboard function as “action done”, “action search”, “action previous”,
  action search, etc.

                                                                                                                          24
Scan Mode
     The NFT10 provides the following four scan modes:

     1. Level mode: Press and hold the scan trigger to start a decode session which continues until the trigger is released.

     2. Continuous mode: Press the scan trigger to continuously read barcodes. To suspend or resume scan operation, simply
       press the scan trigger.

       Scan interval (ms): This parameter sets the timeout between decode sessions.

     3. Pulse mode: Press the scan trigger to start a decode session which continues until the decode session timeout expires.

     4. Delay mode (Scan on release key): Press and hold the scan trigger to aim at barcode then release it to start a decode
       session which continues until the decode session timeout expires or a barcode is decoded. It is advised to use this scan
       mode and the Acuscan Decoding feature to ensure that only the desired barcodes are read if multiple barcodes are
       placed closely together.

       Decode session timeout (ms): This parameter sets the maximum time decode session continues during a scan
       attempt.

       Masked repeat interval (ms): This parameter sets the time interval between two successive reads on the same
       barcode.

25
Scan Trigger
     Left/Right SCAN key: Use the Scan key on the left/right side of the terminal as a scan trigger. Enable or disable them
     as per your actual needs.

Prefix & Suffix
   To set the prefix/suffix, enter the hexadecimal value of a desired prefix/suffix, and then tap “OK”. For example, if you want
   to add a Line Feed character after each barcode, set the suffix to “0A”; if you want to add a Carriage Return character after
   each barcode, set the suffix to “0D”.

                                                                                                                               26
Good Read Indicator
     The terminal can use sound/ vibration/ LED to indicate a good read. Choose one or more options as per your actual needs.

     1. Sound: The NFT10 issues a short beep to indicate a good read.

     2. Vibrating: The NFT10 vibrates to indicate a good read.

     3. LED: The blue LED on the NFT10 flashes once to indicate a good read.

Encoding
     Choose a character encoding to interpret barcode data.

     1. AUTO: The terminal determines automatically if the target barcode uses UTF-8, GBK, or ISO-8859-1 encoding. If the
     terminal produces the wrong output, you may need to choose or enter a specific character encoding.

     2. UTF-8: Dominant Unicode encoding.

     3. GBK: A character encoding for Chinese characters.

     4. ISO-8859-1: A common character encoding that covers Western European languages.

     5. windows-1251: A character encoding designed to cover language that uses the Cyrillic alphabet such as Russian,
     Bulgarian, Serbian Cyrillic, and other languages.

     6. Other: Enter a different character encoding when UTF-8, GBK, ISO-8859-1, and windows-1251 are not applicable. If the
     terminal does not support the encoding entered, this setting will fail.

27
Data Edit
   This feature allows you to edit barcode data with a script.

   Tap “load script” and then select the desired script file on the terminal, or scan the 2D barcode that contains a script, to load
   the script. Then select “exec script” and tap “OK”.

                                                                                                                                  28
Broadcast-output Settings
     When using broadcast as the scan output method, the NFT10 will output the scan information with the specified broadcast
     ACTION and EXTRA.

29
Symbologies
  Note that supported symbologies depend on the scan engine integrated in the terminal. Here we will take DE3 for example.

  1D code: Enable or disable 1D symbologies and set other barcode parameters.

  Below is remarks for ITF codes:

   1)   The higher the security level, the lower the error rate of ITF code.

   2)   The barcode reading performance at the higher security level is not as smooth as that at low security. Therefore, the
        default security level is 1. Increase the security level only when the error rate is high.

  2D code: Enable or disable 2D symbologies and set other barcode parameters.

                                                                                                                            30
Advanced: The features listed here are designed to improve the scanning performance and energy efficiency of the
     terminal.

     1. Acuscan Decoding: When selected, the terminal only decodes the barcode aimed squarely by the aiming pattern. It is
       advised to select it to ensure that only the desired barcodes are read if multiple barcodes are placed closely together.

     2. Other: Tap DETAIL to access the following parameter settings.

     Noise Reduction: This feature is designed to reduce noise in images produced by the terminal. However, the terminal
     shows a slight decrease in scanning speed when using this feature. It is recommended to enable it only when necessary.

     Exposure Level: Select Auto adaptive or Illuminate off per actual need.

     Power Plan: Two options are provided.

            Power Saving: The terminal’s built-in scanner turns off automatically after 3 seconds of inactivity.

            High-performance: The terminal’s built-in scanner turns off automatically after 15 seconds of inactivity.

     OCR Enable: Select this check box when reading passports (compliant with ICAODoc9303 standards, TD1/TD2/TD3
     supported).

     This chapter includes important safety and handling information and provides troubleshooting solutions for issues that might
     occur when using the terminal.

Important Safety & Handling Information
     Disassembly and Retrofit

     Do not attempt to disassemble or retrofit the terminal yourself. Unauthorized disassembly or retrofit will void the warranty.

     External Power Supply

     Use only the included AC adapter. Otherwise, there is a risk of damage to the terminal.

     Abnormal Situation

     Keep the terminal away from fire or heat sources. If there is unusual odor, overheating or smoke during charging,
     immediately cut off the power and disconnect the AC adapter, and contact your dealer or Newland customer service center.
     Continued use in this case may result in fire or electric shock.

     Drop Damage

     If the terminal is damaged due to a drop from a high place, immediately cut off the power and contact your dealer or Newland
     after-sales service center.

     LCD Screen

     Do not press against or strike the LCD screen. Otherwise, it may damage the screen. When handling a cracked or shattered
     screen, do not touch the liquid that has leaked from it to avoid skin burn or infection.

     Stacking Heavy Objects

     Do not place heavy objects on the terminal as those objects may fall and cause injury.

     Mounting Location

     Do not place the terminal on unstable or uneven surfaces as it may fall and cause injury. Do not expose the terminal to
     humidity or dust as this may cause fire or electric shock. Do not expose the terminal to direct sunlight for extended periods.

Wireless Functionalities

Do not use the terminal’s wireless functionalities where wireless device use is prohibited or where it may cause interference
or danger, such as in aircrafts, petrol stations.

Use & Maintenance

     Do not use damaged or faulty AC adapters.

     Do not dispose of terminals in a fire as they may explode.

     Do not continue to charge a battery that is fully charged. Overcharging will shorten battery lifespan.

     If the terminal cannot be switched on after experiencing a sudden or unexpected power loss or other abnormalities,
      immediately contact your dealer or Newland after-sales service center

     Do not throw, drop, or strike the terminal. Doing so may damage the LCD display, interrupt running programs, cause
      data loss in memory, and result in malfunction.

     Clean the scan window regularly. Do not touch it with hands. Scratched or smudged window may degrade reading
      performance.

     Do not tap the touch screen with sharp objects. Doing so may damage the screen or cause internal short circuits.

     Use only dry soft cloth to clean the terminal. Cleaning it with a wet cloth or benzene/ thinner/ other volatile chemicals
      may deform and shorten the service life of the terminal’s shell.

     Sudden temperature drops may cause condensation on the shell, which could cause malfunction. Care should be
      taken to avoid condensation. If condensation occurs, dry the terminal before use.

     Properly dispose of and recycle terminals. Do not dispose of them as household garbage.

                                                                                                                             54
